Statin effect on blood sugars

I've recently started on atorvastatin, and I know there is a side effect that it may raise blood glucose. I'm finding control difficult at the moment - it may be a coincidence or it may be linked to the statin use, I'm not sure.

Is there a view among health professionals or other DAFNE graduates about how to manage any side effects of statins? Has anyone else noticed a similar effect?
